NY Vintners: Eat it Up! from Kimberly Belle on Vimeo. Watch me review my Apocalypse Sow dining experience on the video screen above. Okay, so I forgot to give it a star rating and the backdrop is lacking, but stick with me while I get the hang of vlogging. My six-course all-pork meal at NY [...]

I have the best butcher in town, and I’m lucky enough to consider him a friend. It’s hard not to befriend Jeffery as he’s quite possibly the most gracious guy in the butcher business and the veritable mayor the Lower East Side’s food emporium, The Essex Market.
